Mark Part 18: In His Wake

As Jesus' fame increases, he is noticed by King Herod. And yet King Herod does not recognize Jesus. As we come to Mark 6:14-29, Mark shows us a flashback of what previously happened to John the Baptist. King Herod had John the Baptist beheaded at an earlier time. Others believed Jesus was Elijah or a prophet of old. Yet, King Herod was convinced this was "John, whom I beheaded, has been raised. King Herod did not recognize the One that is greater than John, Elijah, or one of the prophets - Jesus. Pastor Andrew shows us how opposition heightens as God's kingdom advances.
